The Mountainburg Athletic Dept. would like to send a huge thank you to the Dragon Athletics Booster Club.

Pictured with Coach Dean are Dustin Biery, Booster Club President, and officers Mira Cowett, Kara Blair, and Hailey Quinalty. We are fortunate to have this type of support in our community.

Sadly, many people begin vaping feeling it to be a safer alternative when in actuality it is not. Even more disturbing is about 1 in 10, or more than 2.5 million U.S. middle and high school students currently used e-cigarettes (past 30-day) in 2022. Nicotine affects brain development which continues until age 25, so this age group can be especially vulnerable. Vaping-cessation programs are available for adolescents and adults should you or someone you know need help quitting.

GRADUATION LOCATION: The 2023 MHS Graduation will be held in Carl D. Rogers Gymnasium, Friday, May 19 at 7:30 PM. We want to be proactive in communicating with our graduates and their families so they can be better prepared for their special day. We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday evening. The Class of 2023 will soon be graduates of MHS!

At Monday night's board meeting, Mrs. Christian, Ms. Cummings, and Mr. Hall recognized their students who have achieved industry certifications through their courses this year. Thank you to the students and parents who were able to be at the recognition and congratulations to all the students for this accomplishment.
